How Do I Become a Certified Backflow Tester in Connecticut?

In Connecticut, backflow preventer assembly testers are regulated by the Department of Public Health, Drinking Water Section - https://portal.ct.gov/DPH/Drinking-Water/DWS/Backflow-Prevention-and-Cross-Connection-Control - we did have a previous version of our courses submitted and approved by the Department back in 2023, but it didn't go that well so we were planning to put something more professional together for a future resubmission. Currently our New England Region Backflow Tester Program is not approved by the state of Connecticut or acceptable as reciprocal to any of the local purveyors to our knowledge. There is more info about the Connecticut requirements in the above link.

Why should I choose Kruger Training Academy for my backflow tester certification training ?

With all of the Kruger products and services, we strive to take a holistic approach and develop and equip backflow testers, both new and old. Check out our commitment to The Kruger Difference 

Which Testing Procedures Should I Use ?

All of our courses utilize the University of Southern California, Foundation for Cross Connection Control and Hydraulic Research ( USC-FCCHR ) 10th Edition testing procedures and diagnostics, using derivative materials and auxiliary tests if applicable by the local authorities. 


On our YouTube Channel, we created a series of videos explaining the testing procedures:

This course is the Connecticut version of Kruger Training Academy's New England Region Backflow Tester Program and is done concurrently with other programs. The goal is to have 6 different programs meeting all 6 states' requirements, but have the curriculum integrated in such a way that the core materials are the same. We include an overview of the 6 requirements and a breakdown on the next steps to become registered with all entities required. Often testers are only seeking certification in one or two states in the region, but sometimes they are seeking certification for many or all of them. The New England Region Backflow Tester Program is not valid in New York or other states, only in New England, if seeking certification in other states or regions, check out our main page www.krugerstraining.academy and pick whatever states you are interested in.
